Heinlein's nonfiction article "All Aboard the Gemini," from the May 1963 Popular Mechanics, is available from Google Books. Illustrations are included. The first two pages are taken up by a fictional space-ferry scenario set in 1984. Only then does Heinlein get around to mentioning Gemini. Could be a bit confusing to readers. |

I believe that piece was extensively rewritten by the PM editors. Has anyone compared Heinlein's original ms with the published piece? |

Take good care with the effort when you do find time. It's something I'd be deeply interested in and we can find a place here for a well-written analysis. |
